6 THE LETHBRIDGE HERALD Saturday, December 12, 1970 News oddities MANSTON. Knglaml (Rou- ter) Pet store owner Hoy Tutt claimed Thursday night to have succeeded in a cross- breeding experiment where every a n i in a t expert has has crossed a dog and a cat and produced a dat. The result is a pair of two small animals that look like dogs at the front and cats at the back. The kitten-puppies have dogs heads, but cat's whis- kers, cat's fur and cat's legs. Tutt, 50, said the kuppies or dittens resulted from crossing a black cat called Patch with a Scotch terrier called Bones. The dats are far from mons- ter-like. Photographs show them as smaU, cuddly ani- mals with wide, gentle eyes. "They are docile and good- tempered and should make good Tutt said. "They will eat meat or fish and they make a noise between a yap and a miaow." PASADENA, Calif. (AP) M. E, Quick's pet parrot had a head cold.
